loved this book from the beginning, I was skeptical at first since it bombed on tiktok but tbh, worth the hype. 

I couldn't keep it down the first time I read it two months ago and I'm once again re-reading for the third time. It's not a life-altering book, feels like a comfort read to me and has all the elements we love in this genre and keeps you on your toes onstantly with the actions scenes and plot. 

You can recognise the tropes and familiarity of each arch and character but in such a refreshing and unique way. I feel like going home each time I pick up this book, a throwback to my teenager years but in a more mature setting (and great plot twists).

I can't rate five stars just for the explicit sexual scenes (not my cup of tea, but still bearable).

Can't wait to see what happens next and a bit more world-building (It lacks a bit in that department but I can see it getting more elaborated and intricate with each book).

Overall, a great story and 10/10 ending.
